SOCIAL MEDIA AGE RESTRICTION

Summary

The bill obligates operators of social media platforms to take reasonable steps, including an age‑assurance system, to prevent children 16 years old or younger from creating or maintaining accounts. Platforms may share user information with app stores or device manufacturers for verification, but parents or guardians may allow a child to use a parent‑held account. Violations trigger a 30‑day cure period and civil penalties of at least $1,000 per child per day after that, with a 180‑day deadline to comply.
